Accompanied at Marlins Park Monday morning by CEO Derek Jeter and chairman Bruce Sherman, new general manager Kim Ng spent nearly an hour fielding media questions via Zoom. Topics included her upbringing, the many people within Major League Baseball who taught and supported her throughout the last three decades, and what her hiring signifies for future generations of women.
I’m thrilled to add Ng to the Fish Stripes GIF Database!
How long will the “honeymoon” last? Well, Ng’s front office has several transactions to make this week. Friday at 5 p.m. ET is the deadline to protect eligible prospects in advance of the Rule 5 Draft.
